This question for admin, why my account was deleted two times? :(
I did not violate any rules of the forum. :shock:

It usually gets deleted when links are posted in the first posts without real reason.

I didn't do anything when I first registered and just tried to log in the next day but I get the error "no such username found".
Registered again and replied in this topic
just text, no links or other things. :shock:

You're not alone, exactly the same thing happened when I first attempted to register on the forum.

I purchased the PureBasic licence a year or so ago and using the same e-mail address, registered a forum account. I logged into the new account and began writing my first post, which required about 30 minutes' time to do properly. By the time I clicked 'Submit' to create that first post, my account had already been deleted. :D

There have been a lot of spammers though, so it's an unfortunate and overzealous consequence of that. Welcome to the forum by the way — perhaps tell us a bit about yourself.

Here's an example of a new user's first post that gets his account deleted -> https://archive.is/5Vsmk

The poster says he has no coding experience at all, even today. But he can use PureBasic in Cursor? What's Cursor?

And then ends his post by saying "Whenever I can achieve something with PureBasic, I always prioritize it." Oh, so he suddenly can code now?

Lol. Already the post's topic is enough to determine this as spam.

[X] Done

I try to remove spam accounts as soon as possible. It can happen that I sometimes catch a newly created regular account. I would like to take this opportunity to apologise for any inconvenience caused.

No need to apologise Kiffi, it's better this way than a forum inundated with spam. There's nothing worse for a product's image than spam on the forum, as it looks like it's reached end-of-life.

Yep, and that's a good thing. :) It's why I also archived what the post looked like, to show others what they missed. ;)

Got it, thank's :)
Actually I'm not a PB user, I used Blitz3D a long time ago, and since then Basic in my heart :D
